Exhibit 99.4
Invitation to Shareholders
It is our pleasure to invite you to attend our annual general meeting to be held on Wednesday, April 28, 2021 at 3:00 pm MDT (“Meeting”). In light of limits on larger gatherings and our concern for the health and safety of our employees and shareholders, our Meeting will be held as a virtual only shareholder meeting with participation electronically as explained further in the accompanying Proxy Statement and Information Circular (“Circular”). Shareholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person. At the Meeting you will vote on the items of business and hear about our 2020 performance and our future plans. Please take some time to read this Notice of Meeting and Circular. It contains important information about the Meeting, voting, director nominees, our governance practices, and our director and executive compensation. It will help you to understand the Board’s role and responsibilities and explains our compensation in detail. We appreciate your confidence in Vermilion and look forward to your participation in the virtual Meeting. |  |
